Talia observed the strange mechanism of the shower and noticed that there was one more chain. "What about the one in the back?"
"That one will drain the reservoir. We will drain it before we leave so that it stays dry until the next rain."
Damon hugged Talia from behind. "Shower and wear something comfortable. I will be back in no time and then we will work on the dinner."
Talia wanted him to stay, or at least to take her with him, but his choice of words made it obvious that he wanted her to wait for him. Well, the day was long, and the humidity made her sweat. She would need to shower anyway.
"Be back soon.", she said softly. "Go, before I change my mind."
Damon chuckled and kissed the back of her head.
Talia closed her eyes when his arms loosened around her and she released a slow breath, missing him from the moment his warmth started disappearing.
